The reason was that the existing interface was so overloaded that the Office team was regularly getting feature requests for things that that already existed in the apps for years.
- dr_zoidberg 10y agoThat problem wasn't apparent to the users, and that's probably why people disliked it. In a personal note, with the ribbon interface more than once I've had to google where a certain functionality ended up, which I could easily find in the old UI.
- kermire 10y agoThere's a search bar for that in Office 2016.
- dr_zoidberg 10y agoI hadn't noticed it, and (fortunately) it's been a while since I've needed to search for things!
